Italian Sliders

Ingredients

For the sliders:

1 pack of King’s Hawaiian Sweet Rolls (12-count)

9 slices prosciutto

9 slices salami

9 slices spicy salami

6 slices mortadella

1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes

2 large balls of burrata

1/4 cup tomato pesto (or sauce of choice for top buns)

1/4 cup pesto (store bought or homemade)

Hot honey, to drizzle

Parmesan, grated

Salt and pepper, to taste

For the garlic butter:

1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick), melted

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 tsp dried Italian seasoning (or a mix of oregano, basil, thyme)

1/2 tsp garlic powder (optional)

1 tbsp Parmesan cheese (optional, for added flavor

Directions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (175°C).

Prepare the garlic butter: In a small bowl, mix together the melted butter, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, garlic powder (if using), and Parmesan cheese. Stir well until combined. Set aside.

Prepare the rolls: Without separating the rolls, slice the entire pack of King’s Hawaiian rolls in half horizontally, creating a top and bottom layer..

Assemble the sliders:

Spread a thin layer of pesto over the bottom layer of rolls.

Add your cured meats, sun-dried tomatoes, burrata, grated parmesan, salt and pepper to taste, drizzle of hot honey and tomato pesto to top rolls.

Cover with the top half of the rolls.

Brush with garlic butter: Generously brush the garlic butter mixture over the top of the rolls, making sure to cover every inch.

Bake the sliders: Place the sliders in the preheated oven and bake for about 7-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the rolls are golden brown on top.
